US President Joe Biden bestowed arts and humanities medals on 22 stars in a ceremony at the White House on Tuesday. Bruce Springsteen, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Mindy Kaling, and Gladys Knight were among those who were honoured.

While conferring the National Medal of Arts on rocker Bruce Springsteen, Biden made an observation and said, ‘Bruce, some people are just born to run, man.’
US President also honoured comedian Julia Louis-Dreyfus, whose show ‘Veep’ made light of the vice presidency - an office Biden once held.

‘She embraces life's absurdity with absolute wit, and handles real life turns with absolute grace. A mom, a cancer survivor, a pioneer for women in comedy, she is an American original,’ said Biden.

Mindy Kaling, who is best known for her role in the long-running television show, ‘The Office,’ set in Biden's hometown of Scranton, Pennsylvania, received a medal as well.

Singer Gladys Knight was an honoree along with clothing designer Vera Wang, historian Walter Isaacson and authors Amy Tan, Ann Patchett and Tara Westover, among others.
